Will The Great Pumpkin Appear?

There is a family owned apple orchard up the road that puts on a great family fall festival.  They show "It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" once it gets dark and also have food (including hot apple cider and cider donuts!), a bounce house, games, vendors and a hay ride.  We decided to head over Saturday night to check it out.  Last year we had intentions of going, but the weather did not cooperate.

Riley caught something...maybe a tootsie roll?

Hayrides are so much more fun in the dark!

We had such a great time and ended up finding two families there that we are good friends with to spend time with too.  It's really starting to feel like home now that we are bumping into friends at different events throughout the area.  Which, if the past is any indication, we'll start to feel really at home and comfortable here and we'll get the call that the company wants us to move again...part of me has been hesitant to get too attached here for that exact reason, but I think I'm finally hooked.  This place is too beautiful and my Utah friends are so accepting and kind that I find I'm starting to grow some tiny little roots...

Utah has so many fun things to do! It sounds like you guys are having a blast! I'm glad it's starting to feel like home. We've never put down roots anywhere but I think now it's time.
